Shock As Gunmen Scatter Face Of UNIBEN Kegite Chief

Outrage was growing on Tuesday morning after the disclosure of viral videos of the assassinated Kegite chief at the University of Benin, UNIBEN in a room at the Hall 3 residence of the school.

The assassinated Kegite chief who was in his final year in the Department of Public Administration was allegedly killed by gun men in what was on Tuesday morning being painted as a cult related adventure.

A picture and a video went viral and showed a smiling young man in what looked like the kegites regalia and a four seconds video showed a completely shattered face which looked like a gunshot at close range in the face region lying on the floor.

The late student called Desmond but popularly known as ‘mayor’ was said to have been shot dead sometime around 9 pm.

The killers were said to have escaped unhurt after gun shots to his head.

GWG.ng gathered that his remains had been deposited at the mortuary of the University of Benin Teaching Hospital but the incident has again raised anxiety about cult activities in the school.

GWG.ng gathered some reactions to the assassination of the UNIBEN Kegite chief:

School hostels used to be one of the safest place for students in Uniben, at least I never heard of something like this ever happening there.

How did someone enter Hall 3 unseen, shot and killed someone and escaped ? Thought they finally moved past these senseless killings 🤦🏾‍♀️💔

If you know UNIBEN well, you’d know that anywhere can be a killing spot. So sad that in this day and time this shit still happens

Aisosa @aghedo_aisosa

Yes But to blow someone’s face off inside school hostel? That Just shows how terrible the security situation has gotten. The guts it took is scary, isn’t there just one way in and out of hall 3?

EPIPHANY THE FIRST ✝️ @Kittyprincezam2
